BRACING

Bledsoe 20.50 Patellofemoral Knee Brace

The Bledsoe 20.50 patella knee brace helps to prevent kneecap dislocations and subluxations during movement in patients suffering from Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS). It is designed to maintain proper kneecap position in 20- to 50-degree flexion, where it is at the highest risk of dislocation and abnormal tracking. The brace tightens immediately in flexion, achieves the strongest force between 30 and 40 degrees, and relaxes tension past 90 degrees through extension.

The construction of the Bledsoe 20.50 patella brace includes:

A rigid magnesium frame with hinges that provide a correct high Q-Angle lateral pull, effectively counters the force of the quadriceps, resists rotation, and also provides a support to medial and lateral collateral ligaments;

Circumferential straps that control the comfort and tightness of the application and keep the patella in the groove;

Innovative pneumatic Patellar pad that allows patients to adjust the grip to the desired level of support and snugness.

Applying Bledsoe 20.50 on the knee is straightforward if you follow the instructions while taking it off is a snap with quick-release buckles. Lightweight magnesium alloy that is 30 percent lighter than aluminum along with the compact, 12" length add more comfort and wearablility to the brace, allowing it to be used during normal daily activities.

With a brace being 80% cheaper than what Insurance wanted to charge seven years ago thought it might have been a scam website especially with the order processing for over three days if so have him shipping updates but as soon as it says it was shipped it was actually delivered which makes it feel like Christmas came early so five stars

Bledsoe 20.50 Knee Brace

First, excellent service from getabrace. My daughter needed the brace within 3 days before her next basketball game. I called on a Sunday and they shipped out Monday am, had it the next day. Great service! Second, the Bledsoe 20.50 has worked fantastic for my daughter's knee tracking issue. She plays varsity basketball so she is on the floor a lot. It took her just 1 game to adjust to wearing this brace. Her knee has stayed in place and there is no fatigue. I would highly recommend this brace.
